One of the best looking wheels ever
I like the way they look with the car lowered. I need to lower mine.
|
agreed. the lowered stance finishes the look perfectly. I didn't want to spend more money on suspension (got the pss9) but now i have no regrets, except when i look at my bank account!

One of my wheels...
Here's a picture of one of my wheels. (attached)

Thumper, or you could add sideskirting instead of lowering.
Makes the car look lower by eliminating that empty space under the doors. These are 18" wheels by the way. Bigger rubber also helps. (245F & 275R) http://memimage.cardomain.net/member...15_54_full.jpg |
I have actually thought about doing that very thing, as I do worry about damaging the undercarriage or front bumper if I lower it. The guys at RUF have been trying to talk me into lowering the car, but I'm still not convinced.

Yep, IMO, the best exterior mod for the price.
Here's a red one with the skirting http://www.986host.com/albums/RayS/IMG_3005.sized.jpg I personally think lowering the car without a full coil over kit is not right for me. The inability to adjust ride height seems inappropriate for such an expensive car. If you aren't in love with your new ride quality its an expensive 'undoing'. Besides bigger fatter rubber , as well as filling up the wheel well nicely, will only improve your car's performance |
i agree with sticking with full coilovers if you're going to lower the car. i wanted to cheap out and just do springs, but i'm so glad i didn't. The ride with the pss9 is great. my fiancee commented that it actually feels more smooth than stock, although i'm not sure i agree. rebound is way quicker, and handling is night and day. if you thought the boxster handled well before (like i did) the pss9 makes it seem like i use to drive a truck and now it's a oversized go-kart. it could have a little to do with the slightly different tires. before it was michelin pilot sport, now it's pilot sport xs or something like that, although the current tires only have about 30% tread left. i've also got the suspension on the middle dampening setting so i think the it's suitable for most people as you can go softer if you so desire. definitely worth the extra bones and can't wait to take her to the track or autocross.
and oh yeah, at the current ride height, i've had no problems with clearance. the back is set to the lowest and the front could go a couple inches lower. although if you have a body kit, you'd probably have to be extra careful,or set the rideheight higher. |
a couple more pics i snapped a couple days ago
